Top Bayan Baru Hotel Reviews

The Prestige Hotel Penang

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property with very clean rooms and lovely staff who are very pleasant and ready to provide assistance whenever needed. If I ever return to Penang, I certainly would stay here again!"

Shangri-La Golden Sands, Penang

6/10 Okay

"We had high hopes when we arrived at Shangri-la Golden Sands and the staff were nothing but polite, pleasant and helpful throughout our stay. However, we quickly noticed that our bathrooms weren’t the cleanest - there strands of hair everywhere and a slight smell of sewer. There were plumbing issues - which the hotel fixed upon request. The dinner buffet was very mediocre and somewhat disappointing- only because I associated Shangri-la with better buffet food."

Gurney Bay Hotel, A PARKROYAL PARTNER HOTEL

10/10 Excellent

"This is our second stay in this hotel. Location is perfect, nearby to town and also not too far away from Batu Ferringhi area. Although the hotel is a bit old, the staff truly make the difference. Housekeeping staff were very helpful and friendly, providing us with ample items upon request as they knew we do not require any housekeeping service during our stay. Concierge staff Badrol truly caught our attention, as he always smile at us and other guests. We could tell that he really take pride in his work and is a true epitome of what good service is about. Do extend our sincere appreciation to him. Looking forward to our next stay soon, thank you!"

The Millen Penang, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"We booked the sea-view room and had a superb experience. The room was spotless, and the housekeeping was truly top-notch with great attention to detail and beautiful decorations throughout. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The breakfast offered a wide variety of options, and everything looked and tasted great. On weekends, they even have a live band performing at the bar, which added a really nice atmosphere to the stay. As for getting into the city, we used Grab, and it was only about a 10-minute ride."

Eastern And Oriental Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were welcoming and helpful. Standout lady was Kha Mun, efficient and remembered details about us ( hopefully because we were nice! ), fun and so professional. Room in the heritage wing was great, spacious and old style which we prefer to modern rooms which lack character. Bottled water provided daily, complimentary mini bar and wine on arrival. Loved the daily offerings of canapés and a drink between 6pm and 7pm. Such lovely tasty nibbles and we looked forward to it each day. Pool was quiet and well maintained with comfortable sun loungers and iced water on offer. Breakfast was a gentle start to the day, no mobile phone conversations allowed which was fab as some people just talk so loudly and interrupt the ambience. Lovely coffee. Attentive staff. Exemplary. A great hotel."
